Fictional example for illustration — names, employers and numbers are invented, but every bullet follows the honest formula: action + scope + verifiable result. Never copy claims you can't defend in an interview.
The portfolio link is the interview
Put the URL in the header and make sure it’s plain clickable text in the exported PDF. The resume’s job is to earn the click; the portfolio closes.
Keep the resume layout ATS-boring
Designers are the most tempted to design their resume — and two-column graphic resumes are exactly what parsers mangle. Save the craft for the portfolio; keep the resume single-column real text.
Attach outcomes to creative
CTR lifts, SKU counts, rollout timelines — pairing craft with numbers separates senior designers from decorators.
